Mermaids! Update

Post by Lisa2758 »

Mermaids is up and running, you'll no doubt be pleased to hear. In the end I decided to go with tent stitch on the 25 count Lugana.

Sorry about the photo quality. There's not much to see at the moment as it's mainly the dark background and I took the pic with my phone. The fabric is actually a pale lavender colour.
